Does anyone know anything further on this, or rather, has there been any updates? I cannot seem to find anything else about it.

Thanks!

 

Ford shares way too many platforms with Volvo to get rid of them. They are finally making some strides and taking styling and design cues from their other companies. The new ford Flex interior is eerily similar to our Land Rover LR3. They share the same platform as well.

 

Well... I ran into this on another forum..... Intresting! http://www.autoblog.com/2009/02/02/f...ng-volvo-sale/

 

if they haven't sold them by now...they never will. That's my opinion.

 

I stand...almost corrected:

OH NO! China and Inda are taking over the car world now!
Good thing my 745T will never die!

 

Yeah, no joke....

Thus making the pre 1998 Volvo 'whatever' that much more valuable......

 

+1 to that!

Dude your Sig pic is small.

 

it's not the size of the sig that counts TIPSP....it's how you use it.

lol....i don't know why it's stupid little. It's the same picture I had before and it looked fine. Screw it...I'm going old school....

 

Why is Ford giving up on Volvo?

 

because Ford needs money very badly....just like all American car companies.

 

True, but I've heard Ford Europe is doing well? It should be interesting to see how this all pans out with them not taking the buy-out like the other big 2. Hopefully we can all survive! The entire area around where I live and work has been shutting down GM and Delphi plants left and right. Tons of unemployment, everyone is laying-off and closing around here. Dayton truely is (was) a General Motors city and now it's starting to look more like a ghost town with these huge factories just sitting there idle with for sale signs everywhere. It's killing the entire city. The mom-n-pop places are going out of business too. My friends family's business just shut down because their main business was the GM Truck and Bus plant (Trailblazers and such) just across the way from them that used to order 400-700 pizza's a week, etc ,etc.... The brake plant my father retired from is now closed, the DuraMaxx Desiel plant just shut down, Delphi has been just sitting there for lease for over a year.
